About Me

KinFolk recipes is a home cooking blog, where I share recipes I have collected through out the years. I am still adding to my recipe collection as we speak. These recipes on this website are by no means all of my creations. Some of them are mine, and some I have received of Family and Friends (hence the blogs name). Some of the recipes I left exactly the way they were given to me, and others I have made changes to my liking. You can do the same.
